> Elizashae. I would think it would be confusing to have so many different antidepressants/antipsychotics/mood stablizers suggested to you at the same time. You might want to look over the suggestions then go to:

As an alternative to the many prescription drugs being offered you may like to try a natural alternative. I dont mean St johns wort. If Prozac or another SSRI has stopped working for you that wont help. Id suggest you try either 5-HTP which is the natural precursor to serotonin or/and L-Tyrosine which is the natural precursor to dopamine and noradrenaline. Tips-take these supplements on an empty stomach, take a B-Complex and if you can afford it take SAM-E too.
Over here in the UK we have L-Tryptophan available still(precursor to 5-HTP) but ONLY for severe depressives who have not responded to anything else. On a positive note these supplements have both helped me.
